FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance running?
The Gel-Contend 10 is optimized for daily activities and light fitness; while they offer great comfort, they are not intended for professional marathon or long-distance training.
Can I replace the provided insole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the trainers feature a removable insole, allowing you to easily swap it for custom orthotics or specific arch supports.
How should I clean the synthetic upper?
Clean the surface by wiping it with a damp cloth and a gentle detergent. Avoid fully submerging the shoes in water.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the shoes utilize a breathable synthetic upper designed to let air flow through, meaning they are not waterproof.
How do I ensure I have the right size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot expansion during activity.
Do these shoes require a breaking-in period?
While comfortable from the start, the synthetic materials and foam cushioning typically adapt to your foot shape after a few short walks.
Troubleshooting
Insole becomes dirty or holds odor
Remove the insole, hand-wash it with mild soap and water, and allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
Accumulation of dust in the upper mesh
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove loose dust and debris from the synthetic mesh surfaces.
Outsole loses grip
Wipe the bottom of the rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove grit or buildup that may be compromising traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These trainers are ready for use immediately out of the box. For optimal fit, ensure the laces are adjusted to provide a secure lockdown without cutting off circulation. To maintain the shoes, avoid machine washing; instead, wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. If the shoes become damp inside, remove the inner sole and allow them to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. Regularly check the outsole for debris to preserve the integrity of the traction pattern.
